Abstract

The Cover Handler System is mechanical mechanism that completes the task of removing large covers from industrial sized boilers, heat exchanges and condensers even in conditions cramped by walls, pipes and other boilers. The mechanism typically attaches to the top of the boiler from which will extend a swing assembly, from which horizontally extends an I-beam, along which slides a roller assembly, from which descends vertically a hanger which provides means for a bronze bushing supported cover assembly. The cover is removed and rotated out of the way by the cover handler's three means of articulation by the rotating swing assembly, the sliding roller assembly and rotating cover mounts. The cover removal system ceases to be arduous and time consuming. The complex operation of removing and replacing the cover is accomplished safely in a short amount of time even in the most cramped conditions.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is clamed is: 
     
         1 . An industrial cover removal system comprising:
 a vertical top mounted pivoting swing assemble mounted on top of an industrial application requiring cover removal;   And a horizontal I-beam roller assembly extending from said swing assembly,   and a roller assemble capable of rolling horizontally along said I-Beam Roller,   a vertical hanger assembly hanging from said roller assembly,   Mounting brackets, which mount to an industrial cover,   said mounting brackets being supported by a bronze busing from said vertical hanger.   
     
     
         2 . The Industrial cover removal system of  claim 1 , wherein said Industrial cover removal system is attached to the top of a condenser for use in removing the cover of that same condenser. 
     
     
         3 . The Industrial cover removal system of  claim 1 , wherein said Industrial cover removal system is attached to the top of a boiler for use in removing the cover of that same boiler. 
     
     
         4 . The industrial cover removal system of  claim 1 , wherein said Industrial cover removal system is attached to the top of a heat exchanger for use in removing the cover of that same heat exchanger. 
     
     
         5 . The industrial cover removal system of  claim 1  for use of the removal of a cap, cover, or lid of any large industrial instillation requiring regular removal. 
     
     
         6 . The industrial cover removal system of  claim 1  mounted to the floor, or any adjacent solid surface for the purposes of removing a lid, cap or cover from a boiler, heat exchanger or condenser. 
     
     
         7 . The industrial cover system of  claim 1  wherein it is transported by use of specialty equipment. 
     
     
         8 . The industrial cover removal system of  claim 1  wherein any component is replaced by a common component of similar purpose. 
     
     
         9 . The industrial cover removal system of  claim 1  wherein the system is not mounted vertically on top of the condenser, but mounted anywhere on the condenser from vertical to horizontal.
